Critic Reviews of "The Tin Drum (Die Blechtromme)"
Time OutSeptember 18, 2012Schlöndorff has a tendency to sketch the rest of the cast as simple grotesques or symbols of decadence that are unconvincingly humanized in the final third.
Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)July 11, 2013Walks a taut, high rope between doubles and split selves, docu-realism and surrealism, brutality and naïveté, sacred and profane, and history and myth, without falling into the safety net of childish fantasy. (It only falters in its final half-hour.)
PopMattersJanuary 23, 2013If ever [the characters in] a film embodied Hannah Arendt's principle of "the banality of evil", it's The Tin Drum...
Scene-Stealers.comJanuary 16, 2013There are many themes running through The Tin Drum: resistance against an unkind world, the need for acceptance, the horrors of romance and war, and the final idea that growth is inevitable and unfortunately, necessary.
Slant MagazineSeptember 18, 2012In Volker Schlöndorff's restored version of his 1979 classic, Oskar Matzerath emerges as a tragic anti-hero, whose lustful imagination and prodigious magical gifts can't shield him from the juggernaut of war.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsJanuary 30, 2011The literal adaptation doesn't transfer that well to film.
ReelTalk Movie ReviewsNovember 08, 2010This movie rests on the small shoulders of David Bennent as 'three-year-old' Oskar Matzerath, and the undersized twelve-year-old comes up wonderful.
ColeSmithey.comApril 15, 2009Context is everything. Although often mistaken as a black comedy, Volker Schlöndorff's bold adaptation of Günter Grass's abstractly autobiographical 1959 novel is an exemplary model of European magic realist cinema.
Video-Reviewmaster.comMarch 22, 2008Fascinating allegory with war, death themes and little boy who won't grow up.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)October 04, 2006Technically and stylistically, The Tin Drum is an astounding work. Thematically, it strives for an importance it only sometimes achieves
Q Network Film DeskAugust 03, 2004the film is more memorable for its quirky commingling of the epic and the intimate and its often startling visuals than for any of its big themes
Filmcritic.comMay 09, 2004Oskar's story touches on so many facets of life it's hard to know where to start analyzing.
